A moment of complete surrender from my solo thematic production, "Venkatesha Shreesha." Here, I portray a devotee's final arrival at the holy abode of Tirumala, a culmination of a long spiritual journey. The lighting and projection are designed to evoke a sense of divinity and awe.
This is a dynamic pose from a traditional Bharatanatyam Margam, showcasing the energy and precision of the Thanjavur Bani style. The full araimandi (half-seated posture) and extended limbs are characteristic of the pure dance sequences, or Nritta, that I perform.
A close up capturing the essence of Bhakti, or devotion, a central theme in my recitals. The subtle expression and hand gestures are key to conveying the intricate stories and emotions of the characters I portray on stage.
A powerful stance from my production "Shivaantarangam," an offering to Lord Shiva. This pose captures the divine energy and cosmic presence of the deity, a theme I explore through intricate choreography taught by my Guru.
Performing alongside my Guru, Sri P. Praveen Kumar, and the Chithkala Ensemble. This image from our production 'Thyagaraja Hrt Sadana' reflects the unity and shared passion of our group performances.

About Bharatanatyam Performance

What Dance Means to Me

Dance goes beyond just steps and music for me - it's a way to connect with something bigger and share that feeling with everyone watching. Each time I perform, it's with the blessings of my Guru, Sri. P Praveen Kumar. My hope is that the devotion and stories I feel on stage reach you too.

What I Offer

  • Solo Bharatanatyam recitals with strong themes, like journeys to Tirumala (VENKATESHA SHREESHA), explorations of Lord Shiva (SHIVAANTARAGAM), or the emotional world of the Nayika in love and longing (MAANINI).
  • Pieces based on timeless stories, like Radha searching for Krishna from the Gita Govinda.
  • If you love the traditional, I do the full Margam repertoire - the classic structure every serious rasika (connoisseur) looks for.
  • For bigger events, I also perform with the Chithkala Ensemble as part of larger group productions.

Music Makes it Real

Every show is accompanied by a live Carnatic orchestra - vocals, mridangam, flute, and nattuvangam bring a vibe that recorded tracks just can't match. Most of my team is from namma Bengaluru (our Bengaluru).

Dance, the Way It's Meant to Be

All choreography is from my Guru and follows the Thanjavur Bani - lots of grace, detail, and rooted in tradition. I might tweak small things for a venue or audience, but I never lose the original essence.

Where You’ll Find Me

Based in Bengaluru, but I travel for festivals and sabhas everywhere - Chennai, Trivandrum, Coimbatore, Mangaluru, and abroad too. If you want a performance that stays true to the art, let’s make it happen.

My Story

Namaskaram! I’m Navyashree. My world is Bharatanatyam, music, yoga—everything that makes me feel alive and connected. I owe so much to my Guru, Sri P Praveen Kumar. His blessings guide me, always. Dance for me is bhakti, not just art. Directing Bharathadyuthi, I help students with their Rangabhivandane (stage debut). Digging into stories, like how Balaji got his name, and bringing them alive on stage with musicians from namma Bengaluru—that’s my bliss.
